I am new to this forum and would like to say how much I enjoy it and how helpful it is to someone just starting out. I had Aurora Thunderjets as a kid so I purchased a 1/32 Scalextric set this past Christmas to use when my grand children came over figuring they too would enjoy it. What started out as a oval on the floor has quickly grown and I enjoy it as much as they do. We have started to add buildings and some scenery to the layout and have a great deal of fun racing on it. I have attached some pictures and would welcome your comments. Thanks--Rob

Comments eh? Ok, here's one.......

SWEET track! Welcome to HT! :)

to use when my grand children came over

I can hear it all now..."Grampa... when do we get a turn?" :lol:

Excellent layout Rob.... Top shelf work. :thumbsup: nd

Wah-ho, Rob!

We will welcome you to HT in any scale.

Nice looking track. All of the little details really add to the experience, yeah?

Fantastic looking field of cars, too! :thumbsup:

Man, the track looks great, but Im really diggin the inventory.
Really nice collection of 60's racers!!! :thumbsup:

Welcome to the HT and I am glad to see you are thinking of the kids. Nice setup. You should have gone with HO scale. Fits in kids hands better and you all can putz with um. Hey, maybe you still can do HO. Just lower another table from above!

2 tracks are certainly better than one...but the only part that really NEEDS to fit in the hand are the controllers. Those are pretty much the same size, from scale to scale, yeah?:thumbsup:

:thumbsup: Nice!! I'm digging the look of your slot cave too.

Very cool stuff you got going on there :thumbsup:

Great track. Great cars. Great slot room/cave. When you come back to the hobby, you don't mess around! :thumbsup:

Sweet Track!!! Figures Some New Guy Would Have It ... Lol!

Sorry, but heck with the kids, when can I come over??? Uh, I am kid at heart!!! Great looking Nascar collection and track!!! RM

Welcome back.

It's pretty clear that Grandpa is a craftsman. I hope the grandkids realize what a great role-model they have so close at hand. Every kid should be so lucky.

Beautiful work - the layout, the table and the environment.
